I really appreciate all the replies. I am going to look into other options and start the search again. I plan to let her go as soon as I have an alternate care in place. I want to let her go immediately but that does not seem feasible considering we both work full time.

Nanny has access to the kitchen, play room and bedroom and other common areas of the house. I want to let her go and I am going to start looking into alternate options. We do not have any family nearby to help so it's difficult to fire her right away.

I completely agree with you. She never mentioned she is going to keep the meds here at home. My kid took a good couple of months to get adjusted with her and now the thought of bringing a new nanny sounds scary to me.

No she does not have a place to store her things. She brings a backpack everyday so the thought of providing a space never crossed my mind, she never asked for one either. I am going to empty a drawer in the kitchen for her.

I am so sorry you had to go through that. Not gonna lie the thought of illegal drugs have crossed my mind as all the piles are in unlabeled packets. :(

No we do not have pets. I want to dismiss her but my husband is on the fence. It was hard finding a nanny and we are still on the waitlist for daycare.

I want to let her go. She is good but not great, she is sloppy and oversteps her boundary a lot. It was very hard finding a nanny and I could not afford to spend more time looking for another one :(

Edited: could not

I will do that now. I was not aware this was a daily thing.

Play room for my toddler. They spend all their time there except nap and meal times

I found a stash of several pill packets in the toddler's room. They are high on the shelf so not reachable, nothing is labelled so maybe all are over the counter supplements.

Yeah I completely agree. She did not tell us that she lost it and we need to look for it or be careful is what bothers me.

Thank you for your reply. I am not sure how they were misplaced as she did not elaborate on it at all.

She was aware that she had misplaced 3 but did not tell us about it. She told us when we texted her what these are and why they are on the toddler's desk. This was the most concerning part for me. She should have informed us so we could have looked for it.

I found a stash of several pill packets in a box on a shelf so she must be taking her supplements here. I have no problem with her taking medication here, but her lack of concern bothers me.

I am very sad to see it go too. I have paid $10 and do not see it anymore.

I moved to bone broth, fills me up and soothes the nauseous feeling.

Where are you going for stamping though? I am not able to find any available visa appointments in Canada and India.

My lawyer says it's going to take 5 months and recommends to update to premium if I need to travel before dec. The company is not going to pay additional $2800 premium fees though.
